Contract n° QLK1-CT2000-60080
Core Project Title : Consumer Psychology: Understanding Food Choice & Its Effects on Psychological Well-Being
Brief Description :
• Research on decision making, preference development, implicit learning, social cognition, habit formation, or choice/purchase behavior.
• The first activity is intended to enhance understanding of the dynamics of liking, and behavioral change, and their effects on consumer preferences and habits. • The second activity is intended to enhance understanding of how new technologies will affect consumer preferences and behavior in the future, especially with regard to new technology for the home, and interfacing with information systems.

Examples of Marie Curie Host Fellowships in Relation to Food Sciences
Contract n° QLK5-CT1999-50510
Core Project Title : Unlocking the Potential of Dietary Phytochemicals: Exploitation, Risks and Benefits
Brief Description : • Generate information regarding the relative bioavailability of flavonoids from foods, functional foods and supplements is lacking.• Obtain information whether increasing flavonoid intakes leads to increased absorption, or whether the absorptive processes are saturated at normal dietary intake levels. • Determine the relative bioavailability of quercetin (a flavonol) from a natural food source (onions), from food containing increased levels of quercetin (conventionally-bred high quercetin onions), and from dietary supplements. • Investigate whether there is an upper limit for the absorption of quercetin. • Perform carefully controlled intervention studies on human volunteers.
